Chapta 2: Healing
Amber on emerald: eyes meet. Sakura stood in the doorway staring at Syaoran. A light breeze passed between them. It blew Sakura's hair lightly as Syaoran stood in awe. So beautiful…
"Come in." she finally said and opened the door a little wider. He nodded and followed her to the kitchen.
"Something smells good…" Syaoran said to break the awkward silence.
"Brownies."
"Comfort food…" He took a seat at the table. "So… You wanna talk about it?"
"A little bit of yes and no," she passed him a cup of tea and stared sadly into her own. "I know I should have listened to you when you said Kenji was trouble. I'm such an idiot! I just kept thinking 'maybe he's different' but I was wrong. They're all the same. They all try to get me in bed and the minute I say no they don't want me anymore. Oh Syaoran I'm so tired of being abandoned!" she thrust her head into his chest and began crying heavily.
"There there. It's aright, I'm here. I'll never leave you. Never." His words shocked both of them a little. Syaoran blushed uneasily as she stared into his eyes.
"Thank you. You're a great friend."
Ouch! Syaoran smirked disappointedly. "No prob."
"Hey we should totally hang out tonight! It'll be fun." Sakura's mood was instantly lifted and began blabbing on about what to do.
"Eh, alright…" he nodded. That's Sakura for ya. Can't stay sad for too long… He suddenly froze. A brilliant idea! "Let's go to the beach."
"Why?" she sensed he had some kind of trick up his sleeve.
"Dress warm yet sexy. I'll have a surprise for you."
"No! Not another photo shoot. Wah, I just wanted to have fun!" Sakura whined. Syaoran discovered he was quiet talented at photography while in high school and decided to pursue his hobby to make a little extra cash (who would've thought?). Somehow Sakura always ended up having to be in his pictures.
"Work is fun."
"All work and no play makes Syao a dull boy."
"Hey now don't hate me cuz I'm the masta."
"Master of what? Self-absorption?"
"Ack put away that hater-aide girl." He snapped his fingers and Sakura gave in and laughed.
"Alright, alright I'll do it. What time do I meet you, playa?" she smiled and he raised his eyebrows in response.
"8 o'clock. I'll see you then… I need to get ready." He waved and headed out the door leaving her smirking. Sexy? I'll give him sexy… Ok that was weird. She shook her head and leaned back in her chair, wondering why she suddenly felt so attracted to her best friend.
